Paph. Robinianum

[rdlsreno]

Another Paph. Robinianum is in flower. It is larger and darker than my first awarded clone. I posted them both for comparison. I like the clone "Green Gremlin' since it has a cleaner color contrast and balanced dorsal sepals.

Gorgeous Ramon. I'm with you. I prefer the 2nd one. Nicer contrast as you say.

I bought this hybrid recently. I was so excited as it is hard to come by. Unfortunately the plant clearly is not a Robinianum as it has red colouring at the base of the leaves. I was so dissappointed. I'll keep looking.

Wow what a show! Thanks for sharing such a superb specimen.

 

[biothanasis]

Incredible show!!!! Lovely colours!!!!

I'm assuming Ramon you like the one on the left vs the awarded clone on the right. Fine send me the throw-a-way clone on the right then!:evil:

 

[likespaphs]

ummm... which is which?
are you gonna take the other one in for judging?

 

[CodPaph]

very very nice , beautiful bloom and colors

 

[KyushuCalanthe]

My vote goes for the one on the right - the color is just outstanding. Both are lovely though.

:rollhappy: This is getting confusing ..... from his description & the clonal name, I would think the one on the left is the awarded one. I'd keep both, they're both NICE!!! :clap:

 

[smartie2000]

I like the one on the left. The flower is more balanced

I like the one on the left - the right side one is darker, and that's really nice too, but I like the crisp color differences in the greener one w/ the dark colors confined to just parts of the bloom. They're both really nice though, I think you need to keep and display them both side by side to enjoy the contrasts!

 

[Elena]

They are both beautiful and it's great to see them side by side. The one dark one on the right is the one I prefer.

Cheers!
Love the one on the right. I always go for color.
Without diversity!
We would all be driving the same red car.

 

[swamprad]

WOW! I love them both, Ramon!

 

[SlipperFan]

It would be difficult to choose.

 

[Candace]

The one on the left is the awarded one. I was there that night:> I like the color of the one on the right, but the form of the awarded one is better, I think. Will you be taking the new one to judging?

 

[Greenpaph]

The darker one is gorgeous!

Yes, the awarded one is the one on the left. It is smaller but cleaner. I won't be bringing it to judging since it only has five flowers.
